iRobot overhauls its entire Roomba lineup with ClearView LiDAR navigation on every model, from the Roomba 105 to the Roomba Plus 505 Combo. It is the largest launch in its history, months before its bankruptcy.

### Background On March 11, 2025, iRobot introduced what it called the largest product launch in its history: a fully renewed Roomba lineup. Long behind its Chinese competitors, the brand finally brought LiDAR navigation to all its new models and simplified its product names. ### Specifications - ClearView LiDAR navigation on all models; PrecisionVision AI object avoidance on select models. - Models: Roomba 105 Vac series, Roomba 205 DustCompactor Vac and Combo, Roomba Plus 405 Combo and Roomba Plus 505 Combo with AutoWash dock. - DustCompactor (205 series): onboard debris compaction, with no large emptying dock. - AutoWash dock (405 and 505), PerfectEdge technology (505), automatic carpet detection and avoidance when mopping. - Pre-orders from March 18, 2025 on iRobot.com (North America and select European markets), retail availability on March 23. ### Why it matters This refresh was meant to revive iRobot after the failed Amazon acquisition. The very next day, however, the company warned investors of substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern; it filed for bankruptcy in December 2025. ### Key takeaways The last major lineup of an independent iRobot, catching up on navigation without being enough to save the company.
